Abstract: |
The work associated with this project was carried out by staff from HFA, in accordance with the written scheme of investigation for historic building recording produced by HFA, (Atkinson, D. September 2021), with reference to the Chartered Institute for Archaeologists 2014 Standard and Guidance for the archaeological investigation and recording of standing buildings or structures.
The scheme of works comprised the photographic recording of the building as it stands with the intention of highlighting surviving architectural features of aesthetic or historic interest. A single visit was made to the site on the 24th September 2021.
The digital photographic record was undertaken using a Pentax Optio WG-1 14 megapixel camera, and a selection of the digital photographs is presented as plates with this report.
All plate locations related to the architectural recording are included in the accompanying 1:500 scale plans of the building (Figures 3 & 4) which were generated from an existing plan created and provided by NPS Humber and modified using AutoCAD for the purposes of this illustration.
A concordance table cross-referencing all the digital photographs is included as Appendix 1 of this report and contained in the project archive. In September 2021 a programme of historic building recording was undertaken by Humber Field Archaeology in advance of the demolition and subsequent reconstruction of 52A & 54 Brunswick Arcade, Beverley Road, Kingston upon Hull.
Brunswick Arcade was a three-storey building comprising a brick-and-mortar construction with a largely Stretcher bond throughout. Whilst the western elevation of the building remains intact, if not heavily deteriorated, additional buildings at the rear of the property have been demolished by the time of the investigation.
The most prominent feature of the building would be the two-storey brick-built bay window situated on the southern end of the western elevation leading into the dormer window present within the roof on the same side. A similarly decorative wooden framed bay window is present on the opposing end of the building but due to the materials used is in a highly deteriorated state. In line with the condition of the building at the time of the investigation a suitable survey has been carried out to facilitate the demolition of the structure ahead of rebuilding. |
